本体匹配包括在两个本体的实体之间生成一组对应关系。这个过程被看作是解决基于本体的应用程序中的数据异构性的一种方法，使它们之间的互操作性。然而，现有的匹配系统是通过假设源本体和目标本体的实体都是用相同的语言（例如英语）编写的来设计的。多语言本体匹配是一个开放性的研究课题。本文描述了一个多语言匹配的API，它实现了两种策略，直接基于查询和间接基于查询。第一种策略考虑两个本体之间的直接匹配（即，没有中间本体），借助于外部资源，即，翻译.由（Jung et al.，2009年），是基于组成的路线。我们评估这些策略使用简单的字符串相似性为基础的匹配器和三个本体写在英语，法语和葡萄牙语，扩展OAEI基准测试206。
Ontology matching consists of generating a set of correspondences between the entities of two ontologies. This process is seen as a solution to data heterogeneity in ontology-based applications, enabling the interoperability between them. However, existing matching systems are designed by assuming that the entities of both source and target ontologies are written in the same languages ( English, for instance). Multi-lingual ontology matching is an open research issue. This paper describes an API for multi-lingual matching that implements two strategies, direct translation-based and indirect. The first strategy considers direct matching between two ontologies (i.e., without intermediary ontologies), with the help of external resources, i.e., translations. The indirect alignment strategy, proposed by (Jung et al., 2009), is based on composition of alignments. We evaluate these strategies using simple string similarity based matchers and three ontologies written in English, French, and Portuguese, an extension of the OAEI benchmark test 206.
